After being scouted in 1982, Momoko began making TV appearances as a pop idol, and released her first single in 1984. Quickly rising to prominence, Momoko went on to release seven albums between 1984 and 1991, the last of which saw her shedding her mainstream-orientated image, shifting in sound and aesthetic to rock.

For her performance at Nippon Budokan, Momoko performed ‘Futari No Night Dive’, ‘Summer Eyes’, and ‘Blind Curve’ – which features on Light In The Attic’s second Pacific Breeze compilation, released this May.
